Research Notes
1900 Census give birthdate Sep 1887 Minnesota birth records give birthdate 1 Dec 1886 Minnesota death records give birthdate as 1 Nov 1886 Social Security Death Index gives birth date as 1 Dec 1886
She's enumerated twice in the 1910 US. Census -
- Once in her father's household in New Canada, Ramsey, Minnesota with her mother and siblings
- And the other As Cora Mankey in her husband William's household, at St Paul Ward 4 Ramsey, Minnesota, with one son Joseph age 1 and her sister Florence McClellan, age 20 - a seamstress, on 25 Apr 1910
I haven't found marriage records for Cora Manke and Ernest Ward or Cora Ward and William Glover. Although the FAG Memorial says that she married Ernest Ward on 23 Jun 1919 and the marriage to William Grover was 1 Apr 1938. No sources are given.
Haven't found this family in the 1940 Census yet.
